Our unbeaten start ends but we played pretty well in an even enough game. We kept probing to get the leveller after going one down in the first half, but Chelsea killed it against the back up goalkeeper very late on after Szczesny went off injured. Thankfully he's back for the next game, not much to write about.
We knew this would be a big test and it showed but there's still a long way to go, just one that we didn't make use of our chances. Put it to bed, move onto the next game.
Concede four in the last game and score four in this one, shows how strange this game can be at times but the main thing today was the win to bounce back from the hammering in our last game and we did that with a really good performance from the team.
Four different scorers aswell, we deserved the win today, we got it spot on in our preparation against Rovers, Ryan is building a decent side there looking at his roster. We just need to try and get a run of results going really and put pressure on the sides around the top before Nick wins the league by the halfway point.
Two early goals set us on our way as the goals just kept on coming in a game that ended up a totally one sided affair. Not even the fact that our midfield man wilfred Ndidi received a red card after half an hour could slow down the onslaught with front man Lautoro Martinez the star of the show scoring no fewer than four goals. West Ham got one back late on that proved to be nothing more than a consolation.
Probably not the best time to try a new tactic but in all honesty we actually played quite well and the stats seem to suggest that we were hard done by. Leeds took their chances whereas we didn't. Not a great season at all so far.
Lee and his palace side are a bit unlucky today, Lee is absolutely right that there was very little between the two sides on stats but the difference was our finishing.
The score line is definitely harsh on Palace, we totally got our tactics wrong today, expecting the C we play almost every game and just took it for granted that’s what we’d be facing and therefor rolled out the E. Palaces P made us struggle through periods of this game but as I said we managed to make our superior finishing count.
Really tough game and a very good three points.
unlucky Lee, very well played and unlucky mate
Season 2 Premier League Champions - Leeds

A well deserved 2-0 win against an excellent side and Manager.We took the game to United and collected the points.They did have their goalie taken off in the 88th minute through injury, but the damage was done by then.Good game mate.
Pretty even stats but today the visitors tiped the game in their favor. We got the opening goal through Mohammed Kudus but the away side scored twice to turn the game around and take the win. Disappointing result but loads of football left of the season and surely results will turn in our favor.
We edged the stats and kept them to one shot on target unfortunately we couldn’t get past their keeper who seemed to play well above his rating! A handy point on the road but also disappointed not to win as we want a European place this season. Gg mate all the best
Well that was massively disappointing. In a game we needed to get something from if we are to stand any hope of keeping clear of the drop zone we just didn't turn up and got well and truly turned over instead. Nothing between the two sides but we still can't finish our chances which might well define our season if we don't start converting goal chances sooner rather than later. Bristol were sharper and made home advantage count.
Well played Gaz/Jon?
Next up we pay hosts to Fulham in the DB Cup hoping to turn our fortunes around if we possibly can and put our first points of the cup campaign on the board.
A very vital away win against a strong side. Tottenham countered us playing C vs P during the first half and the beginning of the second half. They scored an openning goal early on. We equalised just 4 minutes later and added another one in minute 47. They were close to equalising during the second half but our defense did a good job. All in all a pretty equal match with us being the lucky ones.
Our away hoodoo continues, more possession and similar stats to the home side meant we created a lot of chances. Do we stick or twist, keep to the same outlook and take the home form and see what we can do away or do we completely change it to see if that’ll work.
Full revamp it is! Let’s see if the transfer market is still alive!
